if you have to be 18 to own, why treat these as restricted fire arms literally. have it so you must have a restricted fire arms licence to aquire one. you write a test in front of a government trusted individual who determines if you qualify to own/operate a real restricted firearm that can actually kill someone, then you also prove that a)you know gun saftey b) are accountable for your own actions.

or how about the government stops interfering in our private business? airsoft guns are about as deadly as plastic butter knives

While I agree that the gov is >>edited for pro gov spin<< the best thing that has happend to canada with their wise decisions and fiscal responsibility. They earn every penny they suck out of our paychecks. >>>end of edit<<< I'll just say don't shoot your eye out.
